Dear members, before I start this topic, which I'm sure is going to contentious like my other topics in this forum, let me just say that I have no hidden intentions behind these topics. These are truly the questions I have or have had since growing up. But as you may know, these topics are such taboos that no one can bring them up in public (well atleast in pakistan). So I appreciate teh responses I get and I do try to learn from them. But if anyone of you does feel offended, I'm sorry, and feel free not to open up my threads in this forum.
Now coming to my question. There is an ayat in the Quran stating that "There is no compulsion in religon".
But on the other hand, there is an authortaive hadees stating that " "He among you who sees a "munkar" ( something not good ) should change it with his hand ( activism, organization, movement ). If he can not do that, then with his tongue ( by seaking out against it ). If he can not do that, then within his heart ( by always disliking what is evil or harmful ) and that ( the last option ) is the weakest ( or lowest ) of faith".
How are these both balanced? Because they seem at odds with one another.
